Coast Warehouse Is Getting Tons of Toys Ready For The Holidays With A Price Sticker Rework

Lately, Coast Warehousehas been looking a lot like Santa’s Workshop! Per a client request, our Warehouse elves
have been hard at work reworking toys for 99
Cent Only Stores. Coast Warehouse has been tasked with
adding a discounted price sticker to hundreds of thousands of toys for this
holiday season! In keeping with the
mission of the 99 Cent Only Stores,
this price reduction represented a deep discount from other retailers on some
of the stores’ most exciting toys.

Coast Warehouse is excited to have this opportunity to be a part of
the holiday-shopping experience for hundreds of thousands of value conscious
consumers. Our rework assignment on these toys is multi-faceted. First, we open each case to apply the lower
price sticker to each item. Then, after closing and taping each case, we
re-palletize and shrink-wrap them.
Finally, we house the pallets until they are ready to ship to any one of
the 350 99 Cent Only Store locations
in California, Texas, Arizona and Nevada.
So far, Coast Warehouse has been reworking 56 full truck loads
(FTL’s) for the end of November and another group possibly after that.

Coast Warehouse and the entire J.G. Haddy Family pride ourselves on our ability to accommodate our clients’
unique needs—especially during the holiday season! Our prime 250,000 square foot location in
Mira Loma and packaging/warehousing/trucking synergy allow us to oblige our
clients’ unique situations-- including improving your response time, fixing the
occasional problem shipment or just providing back-up inventory to several
major retailers located within a short distance from our operation.

Costco Mandarin Oranges have a new home for the New Year here at Coast Warehouse!

Coast Warehouse
Company’s new customer imports a variety of specialty snack foods that are
sold in Costco Wholesalers.These
snacks made their way to Coast Warehouse
(www.coastwarehouse.com) from one
of the biggest 3PL facilities in the greater Los Angeles area that was having
trouble managing the inventory, resulting in rejections and complaints from
Costco.Luckily, here at Coast Warehouse we have a state-of-the-art
3PL Logistics Warehousing facilities. We knew our warehousing technology could
ensure the efficient handling of our new client’s product.

Coast Warehouse
uses a specialized slip sheet attachment to a forklift that unloads floor
loaded ocean going containers, saving the cost of hand unloading and stacking
each case on pallets without compromising accuracy and precision. Once the
containers are unloaded, Coast Warehouse
reinforces the product before storing in our warehouse to protect the
composition of the product. Prior to
departure from our warehouse, Coast
Warehouse machine plastic wraps the product in order to connect or marry it
to the chep pallet so it cannot shift during transportation to Costco Wholesalers
causing a costly rejections.As you
might expect shipping to Costco Wholesalers in Mira Loma, CA, Tracy, CA,
Tolleson, AZ or across the country safely can be challenging given Costco
Wholesales strict receiving department standards!

Coast Warehouse is a proud supporter and sponsor of "A Foundation For Kids." AFFK is a 501(c)3 organization that was established in 1999 to raise funds and in-kind support for children's agencies & youth organizations that serve abused and at-risk children in Southern California.

We recently partnered with AFFK and one of Coast Warehouse's customers to coordinate a donation of 672 cases of mango fruit cups. With 8 servings in each case, that's over 5,000 fruit cups!

A message from the CEO/Executive Director, Danielle McQueen:

"Most of all, thank you for your generous donation to assist us in serving abused, foster and at-risk children in

low-income communities. On behalf of the 100,000 children we serve each year, I personally want to say how

much we appreciate your donation. Feeding and clothing kids is what makes us unique!"

Coast Warehouse was so honored to be able to help contribute to this amazing charity!

The J.G. Haddy Company Remembers Founder Joe Haddy

The J.G. Haddy Sales
Companyis saddened to announce the loss of founder
Joseph George “Joe” Haddy. Joe passed
away on April 9 at the ripe age of 95.
After being asked by Joe himself, Coast
Packaging’s own General Manager Jim Ford gave the eulogy
at the memorial service. Jim’s beautiful
speech lauded the long and full life of the Haddy Company’s vibrant namesake:

Joe was born on March 17, 1920 as the first son and fourth
child of Tom and Francis Haddy who had emigrated from Lebanon to Walters, MN
where his family operated a small grocery and general merchandise store. After news broke of the attacks on Pearl
Harbor, Joe and his buddies immediately wanted to help, leading to Joe
enlisting in the U.S. Army in March of 1942.
In 1944, he was deployed to Germany where he served under General
Patton. Joe was a tank officer and commander
of a tank division in his company. By
the end of his service, Joe was awarded the Silver Star and Purple Heart in
recognition of his saving a wounded fellow soldier’s life.

After his time in the service, his family moved back to
Minnesota where Joe and his brother-in-law John Haddy formed the Haddy Egg
Company partnership. Joe joined the
Pacific Egg and Poultry Association (PEPA) in the late 1950s. Eventually, Joe served as President of PEPA
in 1969 and was recognized as PEPA’s “Man of the Year” in 1982.

In 1972 he was approached by a major egg packaging company
to become a distributor of their products. For a period he operated both
companies but eventually sold the egg business to focus on Coast Packaging. Since then,
Joe’s entrepreneurial mentality has led to the expansion of the Haddy Companies to include Coast Warehouse and CPS Express.

Today CPS Express,
Coast Packagingand Coast Warehouse are continuing to be on the forefront meeting
all of its customers’ packaging, warehousing and distribution needs. Joe has
always had an astute business mind and a personality that endeared him to
others. He had a great sense for what might be successful. The J.G. Haddy Sales Company is committed
to continuing the vision and promise of excellence instilled in us by our
founder and namesake, Joe George Haddy!

It might still be a sunny summer here in Southern
California, but Coast Warehouse is already

Loma.

Coast Warehouse will be storing the products as they await
their departure to Best Buy retailers this fall. We’re excited to make room for Redcore’s
expanding product line including air purifying heaters! We’re honored that Redcore has recognized
the J.G. Haddycommitment to
excellence and trusted us with its
Southern California warehousing needs for yet another year. Since we’re sure these new models will be
flying off the shelf, CPS Express is
standing by in case Best Buy needs an emergency shipment through our Just In
Time (JIT) shipping strategy!

Costco, Coast Warehouse is your answer! Our prime 250,000 square foot location in
Mira Loma and trucking/warehousing synergy allow us to improve your response

SunTech Medical is an innovative medical supply company which offers disposable blood pressure
cuffs. These cuffs are soft, single-patient disposable blood pressure cuffs
with a patient ID line to minimize cross-contamination for infection-control
conscious hospitals, creating a more sanitary and comfortable environment for
medical offices to measure patient blood pressure.
SunTech Medical also offers cheery cartoon character stickers to
decorate the cuffs and make them more relaxed and accessible to children.

SunTech Medical came to Coast
Warehousewith
an unusual demand. As the manufacturer
of medical supplies, SunTech is required to date and lot code all of its
merchandise. For many smaller
warehouses, this can prove difficult to accommodate. Luckily, Coast
Warehouse has cutting-edge technology that supports a level of inventory
management that meets SunTech Medical’s needs.

If your company requires special warehousing accommodations
like date-coding or lot-coding, Coast
Warehouseis the perfect solution!

situation. Call us today at (951) 685-4100!

As a food grade warehousing
facility, Coast Warehouse is committed to excellence in maintaining industry standards for health and
safety. As such, Coast Warehouse is proud to boast certifications from both the FDA
and the AIB.

Food & Drug Administration (FDA):

The FDA is responsible for
protecting and promoting public health through the regulation and supervision
of food safety. If you are the operator of a facility that is engaged in
manufacturing/processing, packing, or holding of food for human or animal
consumption in the U.S., you must register with FDA.

Our first step as a food grade
warehouse was to ensure Coast Warehouse facilities
were in compliance with the regulations imposed by the FDA. After passing the registration process, we
were issued a certification number (17945671730).

In addition to being an FDA
certified warehousing facility, Coast
Warehouse is also certified by the American Institute of Baking (AIB).

Integrity, responsibility and
responsiveness to customer food safety needs have guided AIB International for
more than 60 years. The AIB International Consolidated Standards for Inspection
represent key requirements that a facility must meet in order to keep products
manufactured, processed or handled in a facility wholesome and safe. As such,
approval from AIB is one of the top honors within the food grade certified
warehousing community.

In 2013, AIB awarded Coast Warehouse a stellar 940 score.
Under the former rating system, a 940 would receive a “Superior” ranking—the
highest approval rating given by AIB.

Coast Warehouse is proud to
announce that some delicious dried fruits can now call our food grade warehouse
‘home!’

These snacks made their way to Coast Warehouse from a different food grade warehousing facility
that had trouble managing the inventory.
Luckily, here at Coast Warehouse we

product. In addition, we were able to
